I use lemmy primarily. I’ll use mastodon for the occasional watch party, but otherwise I’m inactive there. I’m currently exploring both loops and Pixelfed, but not sure how I feel about either yet. I’ve been meaning to look into peertube, bookwyrm, and neodb.
Here’s a recent article that goes into some more detail. It looks like they were in active planning around 2008-2013ish.
At one point gore verbinski was trying to get an adaptation of bioshock off the ground as well. He couldn’t get the financing unless agreed to make it pg-13, but he was only interested in making a hard r-rated version.
Get a life had both bob odenkirk and Charlie Kaufman on the writing staff.
I don’t know who out there is dying for a return of cephalids, but whoever you are, this set is likely your last, best hope.
It looks like eggplant.place is a primarily English instance. I don’t know if there are any others.
You’re in luck because there’s at least one already. Check out NeoDB.
Lots of great suggestions here. One movie I’d like to highlight is Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes, which I found to be fun, clever, and utterly charming.
Would you believe, there was a Dark Water English remake?
Didn’t it take Stephen king something like 30 years to finish his dark tower series?
If it ain’t baroque don’t fix it
There is at least one. I’m not entirely sure how to link it, but it’s this one:
Sub.wetshaving.social
I was debating writing something over on c/godzilla, but since this thread is up I think I’ll share my thoughts here.
Overall I enjoyed it and recommend it, but I have a few reservations. Mostly that it suffers in comparison to minus one, which I found to be far more rich and resonant.
Minus one had a tight focus on character and theme, and Godzilla, when he showed up, functioned as a symbol and metaphor to explore those themes. But in minus zero, that is reversed, with the emphasis on spectacle at the cost of character and story. Minus one was so character driven that you could take Godzilla out of the movie entirely, change very little else, and for the most part still be able to tell the same story. I don’t think that’s true of minus zero.
But if the character and story driven elements of the first film took a backseat to spectacle in the second, man oh man, what a spectacle it was. On that level minus zero succeeds exceptionally well. It’s not that I dislike minus zero; it’s just that minus one set the bar so high, and minus zero didn’t quite live up to it, or at least not for me. I’d love to hear what others think though.
